Genotype MRSA, a new genetic test for the rapid identification of staphylococci and detection of mecA gene.

Pathologie-biologie - 1 Jan 2000

Prère M F, Baron O, Cohen Bacrie S, Fayet O

Abstract excerpt

Early detection of Staphylococcus methicillin resistance (MR) is essential. However MR determination may be difficult because it is necessary to perform investigation of heterogeneous resistance and low level of resistance and to discriminate between oxacillin resistance and borderline resistance. Several phenotypic methods are recommended but they fail to detect low level of production de PBP2a, the modified...
